BIOS Management Overview

Overview

BIOS Management enables administrators to centrally configure and enforce BIOS settings on supported Windows devices directly from SureMDM. This helps organizations strengthen device security by controlling BIOS-level configurations such as supervisor passwords, secure boot settings, boot order, and hardware controls without requiring manual intervention on individual devices.

In the initial release, BIOS Management supports Lenovo Windows devices and provides administrators with the ability to create reusable BIOS configurations, assign them to devices, and monitor deployment status.

Prerequisites

Before creating a BIOS configuration, ensure that:

  • BIOS Management is enabled for the SureMDM account.
  • Target devices are enrolled in SureMDM.
  • Devices are running SureMDM Windows Agent 6.30.0 and later.
  • The devices are Lenovo Windows devices supported by the BIOS Management feature.
  • Administrator credentials required for BIOS modifications are available, where applicable.
